A ring size measuring system to digitally measure a ring size of a user's finger including an image capturing device configured to capture a digital image of the user's finger, one or more processors, memory, and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for: receiving a digital image of a user's hand using the image capturing device, determining a distance between the image capturing device and the user's hand, and defining at least one-dimension point pair of a selected finger from the received digital image, wherein the one or more processors calculate a distance between the dimension point pair to calculate a diameter of the selected finger.
Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A ring size measuring system to digitally measure a ring size of a user's finger, the system comprising: an image capturing device configured to capture a digital image of the user's finger; one or more processors; memory; and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for: receiving a digital image of a user's hand using the image capturing device; determining a distance between the image capturing device and the user's hand; and defining at least one-dimension point pair of a selected finger from the received digital image, wherein the distance between the image capturing device and the user's hand is determined when the use adjusts a position of the user's hand to fall within a hand outline displayed on the image capturing device, and wherein the one or more processors use the determined distance between the image capturing device and the user's hand and a distance between the dimension point pair to calculate a diameter of the selected finger.
2. The ring size measuring system of claim 1 , wherein the one or more programs further includes displaying a ring size corresponding to the calculated diameter using a data set including a diameter to ring size conversion chart of the selected finger on a display screen.
3. The ring size measuring system of claim 1 , further comprising the one or more processors calculating a circumference of the selected finger based on the calculated diameter.
4. The ring size measuring system of claim 3 , wherein the one or more programs further includes displaying a ring size corresponding to the calculated circumference using a data set including a circumference to ring size conversion chart of the selected finger on a display screen.
5. The ring size measuring system of claim 1 , wherein the digital image includes a first orientation and a different second orientation of the user's hand.
6. The ring size measuring system of claim 3 , wherein the calculating of the circumference includes the one or more processors using a formula C=(Pi)*d, wherein C represents circumference, Pi equals 3.14159, and d represents the diameter of the selected finger.
7. The ring size measuring system of claim 4 , wherein the digital image is a moving image of a complete rotation of the user's finger.
8. The ring size measuring system of claim 1 , further comprising an augmented reality system using the image of the user's hand captured using the image capturing device to determine a ring size of a selected finger.
9. The ring size measuring system of claim 1 , further comprising a virtual reality system using the image of the user's hand captured using the image capturing device to determine a ring size of a selected finger.
10. A computer-implemented method for measuring a ring size of a user's finger, the method comprising: capturing image data comprising a plurality of views of a user's hand having at least two or more different orientations; calibrating measurement information by positioning the user's hand within an overlayed image of a hand outline; defining at least one-dimension point pair of a desired finger from the captured image data; calculating a diameter based on a distance between the defined dimension points; and determining a ring size of the desired finger based on the calibrated measurement information and the calculated diameter using a data set.
11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the dimension point pair is defined at outermost edges of the desired finger.
12. The method of claim 11 , further comprising calculating a circumference of the desired finger using the dimension point pair captured from the two or more different orientations.
13. The method of claim 10 , wherein the data set includes circumference data, diameter data, and corresponding ring size data.
